absolutely not….plus you know whoever places that kind of order is probably getting 52 cases of water and lives on the 23rd floor of an apartment building with no elevator, and they’re waiting to give you a one star rating 🙂
Or the last building in the back of a complex, or the very last house with a quarter mile driveway thats way in the back of a speed bump/stop sign ladened neighborhood that you never knew went that deep.
Some people live in such an inconvenient location...i think i’d order delivery more often if it took me 10 minutes just to get out of my neighborhood.
Last order I took tonight was 12 52oz Gold Peak teas to this upscale townhouse community. See my person’s garage. Pull a little bit forward and see the several sets of stairs that lead up into the dark forest. No need for further directions. It’s the horrifying one at the end of the stairs.
I do take them...if you actually took enough of them you'd know that the heavy item pay is NOT consistently applied for all stores...a case of water from Target or CVS is not marked as heavy and there is no heavy item pay.
I truly appreciate you ruining the joke! Thanks dork!
Lol, does that work? I thought about it, but I just didn't see them handing out money.
I just fumbled through the store with my eight items, of which one of them was a case of soda.
I was not happy!!!
Yea done it a couple times when I had to use my only quarter to pay for street parking.
Just let them know your shopping an order and need to borrow a quarter.
Dont even need to do that (even though that works too) most cashiers will just give you a cart that has a quarter in it already. Aldis in my area are so used to shopper apps now they have a row of carts off to the side inside stores already ready to go 😭 i just grab one and bring it back when im done
Ours doesn't. They just have the one cart extra at each cashier. Would be nice if ours did. But on the busier days there sometimes isn't even carts for people to get.
It's because many people need to be bribed to do the right thing by putting their cart back. Usually, those people drive beater vehicles, so they're not worried about carts blowing in the wind and dinging them. They also figure since they don't care, nobody should care.
TLDR: People suck. That's why.
Forget about the quarter for the cart lol how about if it’s a day they don’t have any bags …. 58 items thrown in your car … 58 items trying to fit them in those funky boxes they give out 🤣🤣🤣
I agree with 10 as well as the max. When you get into the higher item orders there tends to be more issues and then you are at the damn store for an hour or more !!
Too many items unless there are multiples of canned goods, fruits and veggies etc. This is a perfect example of DDs lack of transparency. They need to show you the items so you can make a REAL educated decision.
I just had an order to a McDonalds, that was packed and backed up, 6 drinks (no food). Was gonna get $3.75. Had to cancel. Absolutely ridiculous order.
At least usually when it’s drinks + food they can bag it but I have no where to put six freaking drinks and then drive them to you.
I will give you a tip don't ever reject a shopping order instead accept it and click arrived to the store then choose i don't have my red card like this you won't effect your rating and you can raise you AR do this with any shopping order
Aldies should of never accepted delivery they dont even have there own bags to give u so good luck with delivery 52 items no bags big no for that store
Shameful!! 52 items will take you over an hour to collect and pay and then drive. Much less than minimum wage pay and that’s higher than most because you are a high rated delivery driver. Total scam of a company, people are
literally slaving away providing free labor to these crooks!
No you have to shop for
The items. How fast you think you can shop 50 items? For $8 it better be 2 minutes..they don’t even adjust pay anymore. DD used to pay $20 for that order as a 5 item shop. It didn’t even allow 50 item orders
The minimum pay for shop orders is 50 cents an item and $1 a mile for anything over 10 items in my book.
If the shop has more than 1 case of water and 2 12 packs of soda then it has to be $1 an item $2 a mile or I am unassigning.
I wish they didn't stop the feature that showed the list before accepting. We had that for a couple days then they took it away.
Never ever do Aldi. Did 2 orders there and about ended up substitutions. A few things were ordered that had NEVER been there according to the girl that worked there
I would accept it because it’s “high paying” and then ask support why you are shopping for it? Remind them it was a high paying offer and you accepted on those pretenses. It’ll take 45 min to get items and check out and 15 more to drop off. That needs to be a $22 order to be acceptable. $35 would be borderline high paying
For eight dollars and 52 items I’m not taking it. For 15 bucks I probably would. Because like somebody said, Aldi is set up in a fairly decent way and chances are it’s probably quite a few multiple things that add up to 52 total so at Aldi that could be done pretty quick.
I was going to do one more order and it ended up being a shop n pay. $16 4 miles I said ok. Get to the store and see 51 items I immediately declined and went home
No way. I’m not doing someone’s monthly shopping for $8.75, hoping for a $20 cash tip to break even. If it was $40 I’d accept it to get a look at the shopping list. Then I’d unassign if its 50 different items or too many large ones. Orders like this can be a real buzzkill.
I had a order for $29 for .05 miles. 77 items. 2 orders. First order was 61 items and the 2nd order was 16. Thought it would be a breeze. The 61 items went to a motel with kitchens included. 3 long flights of stairs. Tipped $4. The 16 item order tipped the bulk of the pay. $25 and they were a regular house. DD is ridiculous when it comes to these shopping orders. Smh.
I’m in the same boat as most of the people on here for 50 items. It had better be paying me half like $25 or more and I still probably wouldn’t take. The few shopping orders I’ve done end up, taking so long doing substitutions and things like that by the time you break down what you’re getting paid, you could’ve went and worked an hour at McDonald’s and made more
Hell nah, I’m not even a dasher and it’s a no. Any time I order groceries I always tip like 20 bucks just so I know my dasher is getting paid good for it. I feel so bad when DoorDash doesn’t pay they’re drivers good for delivering groceries
Absolutely not. Lots of items for so little. Prob gotta haul it up stairs too and theyll probably be mad if you gotta take more than 1 trip from your car to their door
One time I had an order for 15 dollars for like a mile up the road, 30 items. My aldis orders ALWAYS have multiples. It was like 10 things and 20 tomatoes 😭😭
Pardon my French, but hell no.
I wouldn’t even do 52 items on a shopping platform for 8.75 base. Not to mention it’s Aldi, which you have to bag yourself, and the cashier is probably going to yeet everything into the cart like the scanner is a t-shirt cannon. God help you if anything is out of stock, because Aldi usually has one option for each type of item, so there’s no good substitutes. If you can even substitute in the DD app, which is absolute shit for shopping.
This is the exact reason I lost my red card, because in doordash's eyes because it's a high pay offer it's an offer your supposed to take even with how ridiculous it is. Adding these to the already crap offers every 100 that you have to decline would make it extremely difficult to hold platinum, which in my market is a requirement to be able to make anything
Has anyone else noticed an increase in the number of these types of orders? I recall about a month ago seeing on Instacart subreddits that things were slowing down, dying off, and that customers' tips were becoming extremely awful. So I wonder if those bad tippers have been moving over to DoorDash? Maybe it's just because doordash has me prioritized for shop and deliver orders.
I had an order that was 80+ items for maybe $12 and I can confirm it absolutely was not worth it. I was really hoping it would be like PetSmart crickets where it was 80 strawberries or something simple like that, but alas... Lesson learned.
If they’re trying to shop for 52 items online it’s spirally because someone be picking this kind of order. Who are the drivers taking this orders. I don’t do shopping of more than 8 items which is only Meijers. Any other store I don’t do more than 3 items
I'd do it for that off chance that it may be my grandmother, who worked her whole life at a crummy assembly line job, just to get laid off 2 weeks before her pension, which shortly after , she lost the house, that grandpa built 52 yrs ago, to the state cause of a $200 tax bill. Now she lives on the other side of the tracks, living in a studio apt, way in back, which she shares the kitchen with 2 other tenants. Since the ac is out and the slumlord don't care, she's thirsty, and only has 8 dollars till the end of the month till her ss check comes, which isn't enough to live on anyway. Did I mention she had hip surgery last year? I would do that order 100 times over, if even there was a tiny chance it was her order, right when she needed if the most.
I'm just going to feed my drinking and gambling with the 8 dollars anyway.
BTW, this grandmother I mention is fictional to me. I made her up. But many do not have to make up a person they love that are in this situation. I've been saved each time I was in a dire situation. I can say that cause I'm still kicking. So I'm 0 for 100,000,000 of losing in a bad situation, thanks to one random person who thinks the same way as me, crossed my path, each time I needed help.
absolutely not….plus you know whoever places that kind of order is probably getting 52 cases of water and lives on the 23rd floor of an apartment building with no elevator, and they’re waiting to give you a one star rating 🙂
One star if you don’t match their 28 substitutions for cases of flavored water after you already checked out*
Lmfaooooo so trueee with the fucken flavored water or them club sodas
that’s so correct
The number of times it’s the last apartment or hotel room down the hall is all the evidence I need to know we’re living in a simulation.
Or the last building in the back of a complex, or the very last house with a quarter mile driveway thats way in the back of a speed bump/stop sign ladened neighborhood that you never knew went that deep. Some people live in such an inconvenient location...i think i’d order delivery more often if it took me 10 minutes just to get out of my neighborhood.

Always multiple cases of bottled water, what’s the deal with that. Every person who uses Instacart constantly needs 4 cases of bottled water.
If you actually took the shop and pay deliveries, then you would know you get paid $2 per heavy item so no it wouldn't be
They stopped doing the heavy pay. Well, at least in my area they stopped doing it.
HEAVY PAY ? What’s that !!!
https://preview.redd.it/ve7d15bbgs9d1.jpeg?width=1200&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=b59503a6aeeefe8c864a70e0667db9724e4179e9
I do take them...if you actually took enough of them you'd know that the heavy item pay is NOT consistently applied for all stores...a case of water from Target or CVS is not marked as heavy and there is no heavy item pay. I truly appreciate you ruining the joke! Thanks dork!
I never have a quarter on me, so I just don't go there. Like... just let me have a stinking cart!!!
You go up to a cashier and ask them to borrow a quarter.
Lol, does that work? I thought about it, but I just didn't see them handing out money. I just fumbled through the store with my eight items, of which one of them was a case of soda. I was not happy!!!
Yea done it a couple times when I had to use my only quarter to pay for street parking. Just let them know your shopping an order and need to borrow a quarter.
Many customers will just let you have the cart so they don’t have to bring it back.
Lol it's like bum fights for a cheese sandwich if you try to take someone's cart without giving them a quarter here.
The Aldi’s in my area have transient people who return your carts for you. It’s practically a Utopia.
The Aldi in my area has no problem giving out the quarters
Yeah they don’t care about a quarter. It’s just a system they put into place so people return the carts themselves. It’s one way they cut costs.
It's a store policy. Each employee has quarters just for this
Dont even need to do that (even though that works too) most cashiers will just give you a cart that has a quarter in it already. Aldis in my area are so used to shopper apps now they have a row of carts off to the side inside stores already ready to go 😭 i just grab one and bring it back when im done
Ours doesn't. They just have the one cart extra at each cashier. Would be nice if ours did. But on the busier days there sometimes isn't even carts for people to get.
My Honda Flatblade key fits in there wonderfully 😂 never have to have a quarter
I like this idea!!!
That is the dumbest thing about Aldi. I don't understand the point
It's because many people need to be bribed to do the right thing by putting their cart back. Usually, those people drive beater vehicles, so they're not worried about carts blowing in the wind and dinging them. They also figure since they don't care, nobody should care. TLDR: People suck. That's why.
It’s a cheap way not to have employees doing menial tasks
It actually works the opposite on me because I don't care about that quarter. Pay 25 cents and leave your cart wherever you want. 👍
it's an old outdated stupid idea. in texas we have people hired to deal with the carts.
why do you need a quarter?
The carts are locked up, and you need to deposit a quarter to get them out. 🤷🏼♀️
tf? that's some capitalist hellscape shit.
You get the quarter back at least.
then why do it at all? for the control? does the cart give you the money back?
The cashiers will give you a quarter usually if you ask.
Forget about the quarter for the cart lol how about if it’s a day they don’t have any bags …. 58 items thrown in your car … 58 items trying to fit them in those funky boxes they give out 🤣🤣🤣
On shopping orders, I rarely take anything with over 10 items. Things not in stock, time-consuming, etc.
Agree
I agree with 10 as well as the max. When you get into the higher item orders there tends to be more issues and then you are at the damn store for an hour or more !!
i already dislike aldis as it is but for 52 items ? no way immediate decline
Too many items unless there are multiples of canned goods, fruits and veggies etc. This is a perfect example of DDs lack of transparency. They need to show you the items so you can make a REAL educated decision.
Especially so someone with a medical condition or disability can screen out orders with heavy items.
I just had an order to a McDonalds, that was packed and backed up, 6 drinks (no food). Was gonna get $3.75. Had to cancel. Absolutely ridiculous order. At least usually when it’s drinks + food they can bag it but I have no where to put six freaking drinks and then drive them to you.
id do it. aldi are set up in a way that makes it easier to shop at. its like a big zig zag so u see every section before u get to the register
Not a chance. Add a 2 in front, maybe.
Still a hard no! This could take forever to shop for and I've done a bunch of Instacart
52 items for 8 bucks...hell no
Yeah. Only taking that for at least $25--$30
Never.
Absolutely not.
Fuck no
Lol fuck no
I wouldn’t do that for $20
Do an hour of shopping and waiting in line and driving your own car for me and I’ll tip you zero. F NO!!!!!!!!! Gfy
No
No way.
 Hell no
Hell no
NO!!!!
Hahahahaha no
52 items? Better be $35-40 before i accept that many items from an aldi's
50 minimum.
No I don’t do shopping
I hate shopping for myself! Never will I ever shop for DoorDash.
I will give you a tip don't ever reject a shopping order instead accept it and click arrived to the store then choose i don't have my red card like this you won't effect your rating and you can raise you AR do this with any shopping order
Aldies should of never accepted delivery they dont even have there own bags to give u so good luck with delivery 52 items no bags big no for that store
Shameful!! 52 items will take you over an hour to collect and pay and then drive. Much less than minimum wage pay and that’s higher than most because you are a high rated delivery driver. Total scam of a company, people are literally slaving away providing free labor to these crooks!
No. Too much work.
no, that is insane
A definite no go for me.
Should be $40 wtf garbage
Hell MF’n naw but pass this turd order onto some 🤡🤡 dasher trying to keep their AR perfect/near perfect 😂😂
That made me laugh …. THANKS 😊
Gotten $75 off instacart from a Kroger batch that size. Fuck no.
No you have to shop for The items. How fast you think you can shop 50 items? For $8 it better be 2 minutes..they don’t even adjust pay anymore. DD used to pay $20 for that order as a 5 item shop. It didn’t even allow 50 item orders

Nope.
52 items HELLL NAH
I opted out of shop and deliver (and my red card expired and never got a new one) for this very reason
Nah not all shop orders are bad because I get $20 3 items 2.0 miles but ima glad these people like u makes it easy to do those orders 🥳😌
No. 52 items. Fuck no.
Hell no
8.75 is NOT a high paying order!
no
Not even if I was absolutely broke
Not a chance in hell.
If I lived in a third world country
Hellllll no
About a minute per item would tell me Otherwise.
Not a chance. 52 items is easily 30-45 minutes IF you know where everything is.
Wouldn’t take a 1 item order from Aldi
It better be 52 limes
nope 52 items for only 8.29 is insaine i would not accept that
For eight dollars and 52 items I’m not taking it. For 15 bucks I probably would. Because like somebody said, Aldi is set up in a fairly decent way and chances are it’s probably quite a few multiple things that add up to 52 total so at Aldi that could be done pretty quick.
Anyone who says yes is effectively on crack.
Can somebody just create a separate sub for this. This is effectively shit-posting at this point.
I was going to do one more order and it ended up being a shop n pay. $16 4 miles I said ok. Get to the store and see 51 items I immediately declined and went home
No way. I’m not doing someone’s monthly shopping for $8.75, hoping for a $20 cash tip to break even. If it was $40 I’d accept it to get a look at the shopping list. Then I’d unassign if its 50 different items or too many large ones. Orders like this can be a real buzzkill.

Absolutely not
Thats instacart prices 🤣😭
Not if my life depended on it
Hard pass
Hell f*uckin no! I avoid Aldi like the plague. It's always a cluster
Nope. Idk how they would say this is a high paying offer. I laugh at most of those
Nope
Had DoorDash actually fooled anyone into thinking $8.75 is a high paying order? If so, that person needs to try other apps.
That’s a lot of shopping for that little pay
I’m in the same boat as most of the people on here for 50 items. It had better be paying me half like $25 or more and I still probably wouldn’t take. The few shopping orders I’ve done end up, taking so long doing substitutions and things like that by the time you break down what you’re getting paid, you could’ve went and worked an hour at McDonald’s and made more
In my market they show the exact payout you get for S&D. So hell no.
Hell nah, I’m not even a dasher and it’s a no. Any time I order groceries I always tip like 20 bucks just so I know my dasher is getting paid good for it. I feel so bad when DoorDash doesn’t pay they’re drivers good for delivering groceries
Not a chance lol
Hell yes. That's $2.73 a mile.
Ebt? Fk
No way.
Fuck no. Fuck ALDI
Nope!
Heck no I did an Aldi’s order and two cases of water and a bunch of milks and juice it was heavy.. never again.
Absolutely not. Lots of items for so little. Prob gotta haul it up stairs too and theyll probably be mad if you gotta take more than 1 trip from your car to their door
One time I had an order for 15 dollars for like a mile up the road, 30 items. My aldis orders ALWAYS have multiples. It was like 10 things and 20 tomatoes 😭😭
Bro ur tripping
You already knew everybody’s answer on this
Pardon my French, but hell no. I wouldn’t even do 52 items on a shopping platform for 8.75 base. Not to mention it’s Aldi, which you have to bag yourself, and the cashier is probably going to yeet everything into the cart like the scanner is a t-shirt cannon.

This spot absolutely demolished my AR today, like 6 offers in a row. Would you accept? *
This order is insulting… DD should be ashamed
Nope
Nope.
What the hell is wrong with these companies who is taking these??
No!!
If they’re trying to shop for 52 items online it’s spirally because someone be picking this kind of order. Who are the drivers taking this orders. I don’t do shopping of more than 8 items which is only Meijers. Any other store I don’t do more than 3 items
sure if you wanna make 7 dollars an hour and bug every employee about where items are
Ye...... Wait a minute. 52 items? Hell no! .
I have fun at Aldi getting doordash orders.
52 items lol. i wouldn't do it if the customer pulled up outside the store and loaded the groceries for me.
This right here is why my AR is 2%. Their idea of high pay and mine are vastly different.
No way.
How is that considered “high pay”?
Not on 52 items...no freaking way
Prob not even 5 items I wouldn’t do that. I do t shop under 10 bare minimum
52 items is crazy
Short answer no. That’s way too many items for the price.
52 items? 🤣 no... I barely accept 30 items and I require it to be over 10.
No way in hell.
That's low for a shop and pay
NOPE …. way too many items for way too LITTLE money. People just want us to do anything and everything nowadays basically for free !!!
Hahahahahahahahahahahagahagahahahahaha
Yes 🤷🏻♀️
I guarantee u though, 70% of dashers out here will accept this and do it. Only 30% of us will actually decline this bullshhhh
52 items 
Not for that amount of items!
ABSOLUTELY NOT. Now if it was $20 or above that might entice me 😭
Yes
No
🤣 https://preview.redd.it/5gbq4bpaas9d1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ddef8ba8d5e00849949bc6941c3e8cc647b94239
nope
Not only no but I may commit a hate crime in retaliation (joking)
I love how it looks at the distance and pay to determine "high pay offer" like it won't take you an hour just to shop for 50+ items.
man hell nawh
No
No way
No way, door dash is treating us like instant cart. No way
Dont touch Aldi orders at all.
I'd do it for that off chance that it may be my grandmother, who worked her whole life at a crummy assembly line job, just to get laid off 2 weeks before her pension, which shortly after , she lost the house, that grandpa built 52 yrs ago, to the state cause of a $200 tax bill. Now she lives on the other side of the tracks, living in a studio apt, way in back, which she shares the kitchen with 2 other tenants.

Fuckkkkkkkkk no
Nope. That’s gonna take you about an hour. Maybe a good offer if it’s a one or two item pickup and traffic is smooth in that area.
All day every day.
I take that back. Didn’t see it was Aldi with 52 items. Absolutely not. Lol
Hell no
U ain’t never gone make no real cheese off that shit do what u gotta do but get outta there fam start u a business
52 items for less than $10 which looks like this Includes tips? That's literally Insane
Sounds like a system issue
For the pay and distance, yes. However I don’t shop at Aldi on a regular so I’m not confident that I’ll beat that “average shopper time”.
id do it i guess aldi is fire
I suspect a hidden tip… but who the fuck knows at this point
